Bob Ortegel and Mark Followill sign extensions

The Mavericks announced today they have signed broadcasters Bob Ortegel and Mark Followill to contract extensions.

“I am very excited for Bob and Mark,” Mavs owner Mark Cuban said. “We hope they both will continue to call our games for years to come.”

Ortegel entered his 20th season as a Mavs analyst, splitting his time this year with the television and radio broadcasts. Overall, he is in his 27th season as a TV analyst, having also worked games for ESPN, ABC and Raycom.

Followill began his third season as the TV play-by-play voice and his seventh overall with the team. Prior to his move to television, he served as the Mavs radio play-by-play voice on ESPN 103.3 FM for four seasons.

In addition, Chuck Cooperstein started his third season as the radio play-by-play voice of the Mavs on ESPN 103.3 FM. He has been a regular on the Dallas/Fort Worth sports scene since 1984 and has been an anchor on ESPN 103.3 FM since the station’s inception in 2001.
